Technical Details

Trojan:Android/CoinMiner is distributed in trojanized versions of popular apps, which
were most likely encountered by users in third-party app stores. Similar behavior
was reportedly also found in some apps in the Google Play Store.

CoinMiner uses the resources of the device (the memory, CPU, Internet connection
and so on) to silently mine for digital currency, such as Bitcoin, Litecoin or Dogecoin.
Using the device's physical resources this way results in decreased device performance.
The device may also overheat, charge slowly or show other signs of the excessive strain
on its resources.
